I have a strong distaste for Rap. I'm of the ilk that thinks you can't spell crap without rap. But the rap I've tolerated include, Ice Ice Baby, Baby got Back, Fresh Prince, Momma said knock you out. That is about it.. Well the ones Weird Al did in parody are great.

Ive got approx 2000 rap / hip hop albums and 95% of them are 1991-'96 era. easily the best years. most of it is rubbish now

nice... would have liked to have seen them around that time, definitely. and GangStarr. I only really got into rap around 98-99, missed the boat slightly  :bluesad:

it was a great era. completely amazing albums were coming out every week.  I remember hearing AZ's "suger hill" and thinking "yeah, it's over"  the cheese had seeped back in

hmm dunno about that I love that track, lol  :teddyr: It is slightly more commercial than most tracks from back then though, fair enough

I think it started to go properly downlhill when Puff Daddy/Bad Boy started coming out with real lightweight nonsense, and horrible shouty rappers like DMX and Xzibit appeared. can't stand them!

" I love that track"

I don't even remember it now.


here were some of my favorites of that era some or all of which I'm sure you know:


1   Artifacts- Between a Rock and a Hard PLace  the whole album

2. KMD- what a niggy know

3. Redman- Green Island

4. alkoholics w/ ODB - hip hop drunkies

5.  Audio Two- Top Billin

6. Schooly D pretty much anything.  the guy was laughably bad on the mic but really pretty entertaining for some reason

7. cormega- any

8. capone n noriega, any

9  KRS One "the MC"

10. mobb deep - allustrius
